FAQs
How do short film blocks work?
Short film blocks feature 6-10 titles and usually run about 90 minutes. Some of our blocks are themed (like Chiller Theater and Comedy), but most are a curated so you can experience a smorgasbord of comedy, drama, documentary, and animated films all in one sitting. One general admission ticket gets you into one block of films.
How do Festival Passes work?
Festival passes are the best deal for festival-goers planning to attend multiple film blocks. We offer an All Festival Pass, which grants access to all screenings and events (including Opening Night).
How do I buy my tickets or passes?
Tickets are available to purchase online in advance or at the Harris Theater 30 minutes prior to each screening. Online sales for that night’s films end at 1pm on weekdays and 10am on weekends.
Do you have any discounts for students or young adults?
We sure do! For all In Person screenings, full-time students get in for $5 (with proof of student ID) and ages 25 and under get in for $10 (with proof of ID). Prices are only available at the door.
What's the parking situation?
Free parking is available at Theater Square Garage (120 7th St.). Bring your ticket to the Film Pittsburgh box office. On-street parking is free Monday through Saturday after 6pm and free all day on Sunday.
